There aren't a lot of people still writing and reading Buffy/Angel fic these days, but the ones still active are very dear to my heart. Here are five of my favorites from the last 12 months:
Would They Go On Aching Still by fluffernutter8: A beautifully written take on Buffy's post-resurrection depression in an AU where Angel stayed human in I Will Remember You.
Of all the gin joints by Mrs Gordo: A perfect blend of (karaoke!) humor and angst, set in S5/S2.
Escape Velocity by headupheelsdown: A bittersweet post-"The Gift" story that brought tears to my eyes.
Turnabout by Taaroko: A sweet and funny bit of Season 1 fluff that fits right into canon.
The Future Belongs by fluffernutter8: An AU post-Judgment that wonderfully fleshes out a one-off character and perfectly depicts Buffy and Angel's tentative post-breakup relationship.
